shanmonster: (Default)

At least my illness isn't boring. Every day it's something new. Today it's the sore throat from hell accompanied by earache. Hoorah. I don't feel any better, but neither do I feel any worse. At this rate, I'll never be fit for work.

I watched Stargate last night. It was far worse than I recalled. What a bad movie!

My latest time-waster is a game called Hexic. It took me a little while to understand what I was doing, but now I'm pretty good. I have a high score of 116,185. Someone give me a medal.

I've been spending today vacillating between washing dishes and playing that game. When I get too dizzy standing up, I plonk myself back in front of the 'puter. I suppose it's time to go wash more dishes. Oh, goodie!

Based on a suggestion offered by [livejournal.com profile] elanya last night, I brewed up a batch of homemade hot cocoa. I don't think it really helped with my coughing any, but it sure did taste good. I added plenty of marshmallows, just 'cause. I'd make more, but I'm out of milk and am too broke to buy more. Feh.

To make myself better, I think I'll just post a bunch of pictures of people I think are sexpots. It's juvenile, but when I was a teen, I didn't go through the phase of having posters of hotties in my locker. Allow me my moment of senility.

[Yul Brynner]: Yes, it's Yul Brynner again. What can I say? The man was smokin' (and that's why he died, incidentally).

[Mata Hari]: Mata Hari was a sexy, dancing scapegoat.

[Benno Fürmann]: Benno Fürmann. He's not the most photogenic of guys, but there's something about his attitude and the way he moves which won't let me look away. Watch The Princess and the Warrior and you'll see what I mean.

[Louise Brooks]: Louise Brooks was one of the Ziegfeld Follies performers, and boy, could she ever wear a bob.

[Jason Scott Lee]: Mostly Jason Scott Lee's in B movies. You might remember him as Cain in Soldier or Bruce Lee in Dragon.

[Gabrielle Reese]: Gabrielle Reese has an amazing physique. It's what I've been aiming at for years.

[Tarkan]: Tarkan is a Turkish cutie with gorgeous green eyes and some mighty fine obliques. And he can dance, too.

[Brigitte Bardot]: Brigitte Bardot has become kooky in her dotage, but in her prime, she was a sex kitten.

[Marcus Schenkenberg]: Marcus Schenkenberg. I lusted after this slab of beefcake for years until I saw him in an interview. My illusions were totally shattered. The man is an idiot. Of course, my chinchillas aren't smart, and I like them too. Sometimes, being cute is enough to ensure one's survival.

That'll do for now. And now, here are a couple of links, just 'cause....

Knife in skull proves a headache: How can someone not notice a five-inch knife blade jammed into their head?

E-Z Catch: A quicker way of moving chickens. Wasn't there something like this in Baseketball (thanks, [livejournal.com profile] snowy_kathryn)?

I clicked on your link expecting Tarkan and was not disappointed! Rowr!

I have a hunky picture of him in my bathroom.

And what better place for it! :D

Yep. He ought to be on my list, too.

Date: 2005-03-07 07:52 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] longpig.livejournal.com
The one and only!

Is the last one Billy um.... something. Can't remember his name. Amazingly, the guys are soooooo like my tastes too. Phwoar! :) Go us!

Yul... *drool*

Oops! I meant to include his name. That would be Marcus Schenkenberg. He went out with Pamela Anderson for a while, which vouches for his lack of brain power.

You left off Jason Scott Lee's name too! Well, not that anyone is interested so much in their *names* ;D

Fixed! I had scroll-overs for each of the pictures, but I guess that wasn't enough.

Oh dear. You've also discovered the great, time-sucking black hole that is Hexic? I'm not sure whether to be glad that someone else understands the fascination, or sorry that you've gotten sucked in to the vortex.

Good top score, though.

::stands up, looks nervously around:: "Hi; I'm Becca, and I'm a Hexic addict..."

I need to stop playing. But it's so hard when I'm feeling to crappy to get off my ass!

Reese was one of the few femals stars
to whom I paid any attention during my
highschool and university days. So mus-
cular! Although in that picture, she
looks a tad saddlebaggy, due to optical
illusion. :(

I am surprised that Mark Dacascos is not
in this list!

Those poor chickens. It's like that PETA
video, but without the Guns 'N' Roses
soundtrack. :(

I see what you mean about the picture of Gabrielle, but I didn't notice it until you mentioned it.

There's always room for Mark Dacascos on my list.

I noticed a dearth of black people. I must fix that. There are plenty of beautiful black people. Unfortunately, I can't recall the names of the ones I'm thinking of.

Poor chickens indeed. They shouldn't have to live jammed together like that, and I can't imagine the chicken mower is too gentle on wings and legs.

Chickens are dead sexy.

Stargate was the first movie I attended that spontaneously degenterated into MST3k-style heckling by the ENTIRE AUDIENCE. Bad. Oh so bad.

Very!

I can't understand why I liked it when it came out. Obviously, my mind was sick.

Tarkan has Hhhhhhhips! rrrowl.

Curse you, Shan, for the Hexic link! I shall never make anything of my life now!

So far, I'm around 60,000 and dreaming strange dreams of star flowers and black pearls...
